Song: Winter Pokey (Tune: “Hokey Pokey”)
You put your right mitten in, you put your right mitten out.
You put your right mitten in, and you shake it all about.
You do the winter pokey and you turn yourself around.
That’s what its all about!

Additional verses:
You put your left mitten in….
You put your right boot in…
You put your left boot in…
You put your winter hat in…
You put your snowsuit in…..
